Hi people, What's up! I'm studing quantum physics.

My Proposal:

I would like to study elementary particles and quantum mechanics for this class. I wish to do this subject because it's a very interesting subject that I don't know a lot about. My product idea is to do a sort of "poster" with a bunch of models I will explain.

Hey, if anyone finds any info on elementary particles and/or quantum mechanics, let me know - even if It's just a place to look. thanks

-when two protons collide, part of the energy makes a partical called a pion, which decays into two gamma photons in 0.8times 10 to the 16ths
-when a gamma-ray photon disapeares, it can be replaced by an electron and a positron, the electrons antipartical - has the same mass but opposite charge
-the neutrino is another elementary particle that is suspected to have no charge and almost no mass, and can pass through anything
-durring beta emission, electron particles don't always have the same kinetic energy because of the antineutrino
-when electrons and positrons come together, they destroy each other and are replaced by pure energy in the form of gamma photons moving in opposite directions
- leptons - muon(-), electron, neutrino - nothing inside
-hadrons - proton, nutron, pion(+)(also called pi-meson) - have quarks inside
-quarks are in 6 types: up, down, strange, charmed, top, and bottom - all quarks have an antiquark with the opposite charge
-up, charmed, and top have (+) 2/ 3rds charge
-down, strange, and bottom have (-) 1/3rd charge
-pion - 2 quarks
-proton and nutron 3 quarks
-quarks divided into three color charges - blue, red, green - ea. have anti
- like colors repel - unlike attract - anti bonds stronger
-particles must have color quarks = white
-color charge = strong force
-strong force caused by emmision and absorbtion of gluons

note: the above note is now unnessicary
quantum particles form gaussian packets
t( sort of like a cone) widens, but remains gaussian
- external image potent9.gif equation for gaussian packet
-narrow packets spread faster than wide
-when quantum particles hit a wall with perfectly reflecting sides, it ripples the force through the wave packet

Y ( x , y , 0 ) = f ( x , 0) j ( y , 0 ) represent this effect
antum particles can be reflected in a quadratic function
(sx , sy) = (l , l) (sx , sy) = (l , 2l) (sx , sy) = (l , 3l) equation for occilation (quantum function)
- when falling down a slope, quantum particles spread into multiple particles when hitting a wall
- when they spins, quantum particles elongate
-when spining and they hit a wall, they skipp and spread
- when get near corner, hard to recognise
where it cutts off above(i don't know why)it's supposed to say as time goes on, either forward of back, the gaussian packet...
